From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

This is a list of player transfers involving Pro14 rugby union teams between 12 March 2020 and the end of the 2020–21 season. Unlike in previous seasons where the bulk of player transfers occurred between seasons, a large number of player transfers instead took place mid-season due to the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic.[1]
